ATTENTION ALL WINTER ATHLETES. The 1st day of winter sports tryouts/practices is Friday, November 16th. All winter coaches have had or will be having individual informational meetings for their respective sports. However, please be reminded that In order for any student to tryout/practice for any winter sport at Kennett High School, there are two main pieces of information that are needed to be completed and on hand in the KHS Athletic Office BEFORE November 16th, the PIAA CIPPE FORM (multiple pages, i.e., Physical Form) and the KCSD PARTICIPATION FEE & FORM. Please click the following 2 links for more specific information for each piece of information that is required.

If you participated in a Fall sport and did not sustain an injury you only need to complete Section 7 of the Physical form.

If you participated in a Fall Sport and did sustain an injury you then need to complete Section 7 as well as Section 8 which requires a doctor’s signature clearing the student-athlete for future participation.

The member schools encourage the attendance of students, parents and interested members of the community at all athletic events. We further encourage their active support of these programs by participating in those activities which lend themselves to stimulating student achievement, good sportsmanship, and school spirit. These activities should be positive in nature and within the guidelines of the PIAA Code of Conduct. It is not our intent to reduce the involvement of spectators or the enjoyment of those who participate. Rather, it is our goal to create an atmosphere which is conducive to healthy athletic competition, is safe for those involved, and which provides the ideals of sportsmanship and sound educational practices.

SPECTATOR CODE OF CONDUCT (Violators of this Code are subject to eviction from the site.)

Spectators are an important part of the game and shall at all times conform to accepted standards of good sportsmanship and behavior.

Spectators shall at all times respect officials, coaches and players and extend all courtesies to them.

According to the PIAA (Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association), all sport physicals for the 2017-18 school year must be performed ON OR AFTER JUNE 1, 2018. Only 1 physical is needed for the entire school year, provided no physical changes occur to the student-athlete.

You may sign up for a school physical or arrange for a physical on your own. Regardless of your choice to obtain a physical, the physical forms can be picked up in the main office at the high school or they can be downloaded directly from our website at https://sports.kcsd.org (Physical Info. & Forms Link).

School sports physicals will be held on Monday, JUNE 25 at the NOVACARE REHABILITATION CENTER, 689 Unionville Road, Suite 1, Kennett Square, PA 19348.

To sign-up for a school physical you need the following:

A non-refundable $10.00 school sports physical fee (cash or check payable to Kennett High School). If this fee creates a hardship for any family, assistance will be available (contact Mrs. Nancy Graves at 610-444-2416).

No appointment will be scheduled until both items are completed and returned to the Athletic Office.If the Athletic Office receives the CIPPE form and the non-refundable fee after JUNE 15, 2018, you will have to arrange for your own physical (sorry, scheduling purposes)…NO EXCEPTIONS. After the deadline, a schedule will be created and your child will be given the date and time of their physical, as we will still be in school (for incoming 9th graders, either we will make contact with your child at KMS or a letter will be sent home alerting you of the information you need).
